[@blenshanegro3260]

Charm301 that don’t prove anything though. It’s pretty well established that Henri used forced labor to get the economy moving again. Louverture did the same and Dessalines had plans too. Under the circumstances it was the only way to return Haiti to prosperity. Peition’s example that became widespread across Haiti is what happened when leaders in Haiti didn’t prioritize big plantations. The country was split up into 3 acre unproductive farms and the economy tanked.

[@Peace2daworld]

Mandatory labor was not without pay. It was more like a sacrifice to protect the new nation which was literally isolated by all the big Imperialists. They were building a big fortress against another invasion by France cause Napoléon wanted to come back and reinstate slavery. How do you thing they would achieve that construction As a matter of fact, when Christophe died, Boyer who was so weak had to pay France an equivalent of 25 billions of today money to prevent the French from coming back. I'm pretty sure y'all are Caucasians, already quick to come up with their own conclusion. 🤦🏿‍♂️

Alexandre Pétion helped Simón Bolívar with weapons, soldiers, and a printing press in his enterprise for the emancipation of Venezuela. This support also influenced Bolívar to decree the abolition of slavery in 1816 in Carupano, Venezuela. Venezuelans, especially those from African descent, should be grateful to Haitian people.

[@idib1739]

The surname "Louverture" in Toussaint's name literally means 'the opening' in french. Christophe's palace "Sans souci" could also be translated with "without worry" or "carefree". Pretty Ironic considering how they both died 😥.

[@IAmGod]

[@thecarivegan8673]

My only critique of this video is that they made it as though the French "left" the island or "fell sick" at the time of the revolution. Instead of admitting that they LOST and were killed off by the Haitians they had enslaved...which is actually how it went. We didn't gain our freedom out of "luck," we gave it to ourselves and it was hard earned.

[@cierralowery7096]

I think this video is too short to provide a fully developed summary. There is a youtu.be channel called thorobred books on Haiti history. In one of his videos they mentioned that Toussaint withdrew into the interior during the rainy season deliberately because he knew that yellow fever would be devastating for the French. This is smart strategy, but again this video is only five minutes. I don't think this type of omission is malicious but I understand the inclination to distrust how history is represented.

[@Ekon147]

You are right. The narrative that suggests that Haitians were never granted their freedom is a false one that aims to erase history. In reality, Haitians fought relentlessly and made great sacrifices to gain their independence and even supported other countries in their fight for freedom. However, after their victory, powerful nations chose to isolate Haiti and demanded that the formerly enslaved people pay reparations to their former colonial enslavers, which in turn weakened Haiti's economy. The world powers then isolated Haiti to make an example of this great nation and discourage similar revolutions from happening elsewhere.

[@Atstyle]

The narrative is quite different than what some of the most respected historians tells us about this piece of ourstory. First of all its a fallacy to say the french had to retreat because of a fever that somehow targeted only the white. They simply couldn't bear the fact that they lost to Dessaline's army and therefore had to lie about their defeat. Secondly Christophe didn't force mandatory labour but rather offered land to those that were willing to keep working to organize and prepare for the inevitable retaliation of napoleon's army. To anyone interested in learning the undistorted truth about ourstory, look up the work of Bayyinah Bello, Herve Fanini lemoine or even the recently published documentary 1804: hidden history of Haiti from Tariq Nasheed.
